Mr.. Blaine might as well withdraw from
the race. Senator Sherman is the hero of
sensation which the Maine statesman can
never hope to rival. 1t seems that while
the Senator was in Cuba a party of
outlaws, composed of the most dangerous
elements of Cuban banditti, arranged to
capture him. Fortunately for the Senator's
safety, he left the locality intended as the
scene of the outrage just five minutes before
the outlaws arrived. Why the outlaws
wished to capture the Senator is not quite
clear, unless they wanted to make use of
him in keeping the Cuban climate cool.
